Toronto’s priciest condos are at Bloor and Avenue, real estate brokerage says

By

Toronto’s priciest condos are at Bloor Street and Avenue Road, according to real estate brokerage The Red Pin.

An average one-bedroom condo in the area is $570,198, and an average two-bedroom is nearly $1.5 million (actually, the average price is $1,497,679).

There are a few reasons for this, The Red Pin says, but they all boil down to the age-old real estate truism: location, location, location.

The downtown core location means it ranks among the highest rates of foot traffic in the city. It’s also close to subways and the intersection serves as an “anchor” for Toronto’s urban development, The Red Pin says.

Owning there is more expensive than owning just one block east: condos on Bay sold for an average of $40,000 more than units along Yonge Street, the brokerage found.

The Red Pin looked at 28 intersections in the city, 24 of which have “the highest daily pedestrian traffic in the city – each with a pedestrian count of at least 17,000.”

The brokerage also found that condos located a short walk (five minutes) from these intersections sold for an average of $537,702. That’s nearly $150,000 more than the city-wide average of $398,858 during the same period.

The type of condos available in the area are being built for a specific buyer: There are an estimated 40% more one bedroom condos versus two bedrooms units around Toronto’s major intersections, Red Pin found.
